Stop/ The summer season is suffocated by mosquitoes, the problems of the

In 2019, the show "Stop" on TV Klan investigated the disinsection tender, and revealed how senior officials of the Institute of Public Health favored the winning operators of this tender.

At that time, 8 PIH officials were recommended to be fired, who were not fired with the excuse that they had reflected.

Today, the show "Stop" has returned to this tender with a number of problems. Last summer, the disinsection tender was cancelled, after one of the operators was found to be in violation and related to ISHP officials.

This time, for favoring the tender, the specifications have been removed, opening the way for any operator to compete with any type of biocide that fights mosquitoes. The tender is now developed in the Ministry of the Interior by the structure of the Centralized Purchasing Agency, which sets the criteria and follows the procedure. But the specifications are set by the PIH.

The two PIH specialists, epidemiologist Elton Rogozi and microbiologist Zahide Sulejmani, have been asked by the PIH to remove the specifications, not having a criterion on the biocides that the operators will use for the destruction of insects.

ISHP, Elton Rogozi - You should ask the Centralized Purchasing Agency..!

Journalist - They have not removed them, because they are not specialists. Do you understand me? You removed them because we have data.

IHP, Elton Rogozi - I didn't remove them, but discuss with the Centralized Purchasing Agency!

From the Disinsecting Tender bulletin, Stop has also identified the company "Egian Med shpk" with administrator Fatos Lashin, a close friend of the deputy director of ISHP, Dritan Ulqinaku.

According to the data, this operator has the lowest offer, but this fact leads us to another problem. The biocide that this operator has, "AquaBac DF 3000" and "AquaBac 200G" are not listed in the list approved by the Council of Ministers and specialists for use in Albania.

Meanwhile, "Egian Med shpk" is not an unknown name. In 2017, "Stop" found that the operator with administrator Fatos Lashin had thrown pharmaceutical waste into the environment. In 2019, Fatos Lashi, as a natural person, was suspended by KPP for 18 months for irregularities in the disinsection tender.

However, the administrator Fatos Lashi created another company with a different name, namely the company "Egian Med shpk".
